A beautifully produced documentary about AIDS in the world.

A beautifully produced and moving documentary about AIDS in the world, especially Africa. There are no actors, but those who affected and those involved tell their stories. Its about the world as it is an the way AIDS impacts upon the world and us. It also carries a sobering warning - its only just begun. To put it another way, "There is a storm coming".

We are not overwhelmed by figures and statistics, just enough are given to help us understand what it is about. This has to be one of the best documentary's on the subject I have seen.

The photography is beautiful, a great deal of effort has gone into the making of this. It should be shown in all our schools to give teenagers an understanding.
